Come for the cars. Stay for the people.
Mission & Philosophy
Our focus is to make people happy as they gather in celebration for the cars built by Subaru. These cars are more than just fun and functional – they’re also a vehicle for making friends and building communities. By hosting annual Subaru enthusiast festivals across the United States, we embrace and grow these communities, which in turn creates new friendships and experiences for attendees, grows the demand for more aftermarket parts and services, and even creates a need for Subaru to keep pushing the boundaries with its performance vehicle offerings.
Subaru of America involvement
Recognizing the power of its owners’ passion for the performance end of the brand, Subaru has been involved in a big way, helping us create truly worthwhile and exciting events. Not only does Subaru help spread the word and bring rare display cars to the event, but in 2015 it debuted the Hyper Blue color at Wicked Big Meet, followed by the debut of Series Yellow in 2016, the WRX STI Type RA and BRZ tS in 2017, and the Series Gray in 2018. With the s209 entering the US and the Subaru Motorsports program expanding in 2019, Subaru’s presence at the events is bound to be the most exciting yet.
The Events
In 2018, SubieEvents, LLC put on six festivals. While looking to potentially expand in 2019, our main focus will be to continue building on and improving the good times we already provide for our awesome attendees.
Boxerfest
6.16.19 @ York Fairgrounds in York, PA
No Subaru enthusiast festival has grown as fast as Boxerfest. In 2017, Boxerfest was home to the official debut of the WRX STI Type RA and BRZ tS. The event peaked at 4,600 participants in 2017 before getting hammered by hours of downpours in 2018, where 3,600 dedicated enthusiasts still showed up in force. Catering to the Mid-Atlantic, home of some of the nation’s best performance Subaru specialists, this event’s horsepower crazy crowd might also be the most genuinely happy crowd at any of our five events. To add, around 70% of attendees purchase something from a vendor while at the event.
